The Playboy Bodyguard of the Beautiful CEO-Chapter 823 - 725: Satan’s Grotto (First Update)

In an instant, all the cult members rushed out, starting to search for Mary's whereabouts.

There were plenty of ships here, and with such strong winds and waves, Mary couldn't have left.

Despite searching for half a day, they still couldn't find her.

"Report to the Satanic Spirit, we have searched the entire island but cannot find Mary's whereabouts."

An elderly cult member respectfully said.

"Can't find her?"

Yang Tian chuckled coldly. He utilized his Divine Sense, scanning the whole island comprehensively. Indeed, he did not find any trace of Mary on the surface.

This island is so vast, so Yang Tian extended his Divine Sense downward.

Soon, he discovered a tunnel leading directly into the Abyss. Yang Tian's Divine Sense extended along this tunnel downward, and he quickly found a huge underground stone cavern at the end.

His Divine Sense probed inside the cavern and found a figure crouching behind a rock.

Seeing this, Yang Tian stood up and suddenly asked, "Is there a stone cavern dug underneath this island?"

"Stone cavern?"

Everyone was shocked.

The elderly cult members exchanged glances, a hint of shock flashing in their eyes.

Yang Tian observed the expressions of everyone in the chapel, especially the shock reflected in the eyes of the elderly cult members. He chuckled coldly, and with a manipulation of his Spiritual Breath, the stone chair beneath him shattered.

Instantly, everyone in the chapel was terrified.

Yang Tian stood up and coldly said, "Do you take me for a fool? I am the reincarnation of Satan; what here can hide from my eyes?"

The faces of the elderly cult members changed drastically, and they hurriedly knelt on the ground, trembling as they said, "Report to the Satanic Spirit, there is indeed a large stone cavern beneath the island, but it hasn't been opened for years. The Sect Leader ordered that no one may enter, nor are we allowed to speak of it. So only the older cult members know, the new members don't."

Upon hearing this, the crowd erupted in astonishment.

"Does our Satanic Church have a stone cavern on this island too?"

"What's inside this stone cavern?"

"Why weren't we told?"

The crowd began to question one after another.

Yang Tian sneered, "You old fools, I'll give you one chance to enter the cavern and bring Mary out."

"Mary is hiding in the stone cavern?"

Everyone was shocked.

But then they thought about it: the entire island had been searched without finding Mary. If there really was a stone cavern, it made sense for her to hide there.

The elderly cult members exchanged glances and respectfully said, "Satanic Spirit, rest assured, we will go down to the cavern right now and find Mary!"

"Go ahead."

Yang Tian coldly waved them away.

The crowd swiftly surged outside, following the elderly cult members to the back mountain, where they found the stone cavern entrance hidden in a patch of grass, then poured inside.

At this moment, Yang Tian used his Divine Sense to observe the situation inside the stone cavern.

Soon, he stood up: "Yueyue, Yingying, let's go down as well. There are some strange Golem Stones inside the cavern, and quite a number of them. Let's find out what's going on."

"Oh? Golem Stones?"

Wu Yue and Ling Ying, both women, also used their Divine Sense to probe below the cavern, and quickly discovered some of these Golem Stones.

They exchanged a glance and said, "Could it be that these Golem Stones are for some kind of religious ritual?"

"It's clear only if we go down and check."

At that, Yang Tian, accompanied by Wu Yue and Ling Ying, went to the back mountain, quickly entered the passage, and proceeded toward the cavern.

Just upon entering the cavern, they heard frightened voices echoing, "I'm not the reincarnation of Jesus, don't burn me…"

The voice was Mary's.

At this moment, Mary had been caught by several big men, and an old cult member approached her, touched her face, and peeled off a human mask with a snap, revealing a young face. Upon seeing this face, everyone's expressions changed drastically: "Phil'Er, it's really you! You didn't die four years ago and instead infiltrated our church!"

Upon having her identity exposed, Phil'Er's face was extremely pale.

"She's the reincarnation of Jesus, burn her!"

The old cult member shouted.

"Burn her! Burn her! Burn her!"

Instantly, chants echoed throughout the chapel.

"Release her."

With a flicker, Yang Tian landed in front of the crowd.

"Satanic Spirit…"

Seeing Yang Tian, everyone knelt on the ground.

Yang Tian looked at Phil'Er and said, "Phil'Er, I was called by your father Ines Fu to rescue you. Don't be afraid; no one can burn you. I can crush anyone who dares to try!"

Upon hearing Yang Tian's words, everyone's expressions changed drastically: "You were sent by Ines Fu? Aren't you the reincarnation of Satan?"

At this point, Yang Tian saw no need to disguise himself anymore. He formed a Dharma Seal with his hand, muttered a Spell, and sent out a flurry of Divine Talismans, striking everyone with a crackling sound.

As the Divine Talismans struck, everyone felt utterly exhausted, collapsing to the ground, pale and trembling.

Yang Tian helped Phil'Er up: "I'm just curious, as the daughter of Ines Fu, a Catholic Church member, why would you come to this evil church?"

Phil'Er gazed intently at Yang Tian and finally spoke after a long pause: "How is my father?"

"Your father is fine, he just misses you immensely."

Yang Tian replied calmly.

Phil'Er's face grew sorrowful and somewhat guilty: "Four years ago, I came here because my boyfriend Louis disappeared. I've been tracking him here but never found him. At that time, he wasn't the only one who went missing. Others from the church and important figures from nearby churches vanished too, and no one knew where they went. But I discovered the Satanic Church had taken my boyfriend, so I came here…"

"I intentionally let them capture me to search for my boyfriend. But when they tried to violate me, I jumped into the sea. However, I didn't die and stayed disguised here."

"But after all these years, I still haven't found him. He seems to have vanished into thin air."

After speaking, Phil'Er sighed.

Yang Tian nodded: "You should return to Ines Fu, he might be able to help you find what happened."

"But I find it so strange, how could a living person vanish without a trace…"

Phil'Er said, her face pale with despair.

Yang Tian ignored Phil'Er and glanced into the stone cavern. In the darkness, he could see those numerous Golem Stones.

Whoosh!

Yang Tian cast a fireball.

In an instant, the entire stone cavern was illuminated, and everyone could see those Golem Stones.

They were all surprised: "How could there be so many Golem Stones here? What's this all about?"

Yang Tian sneered, looking at the elderly cult members: "You should know what these Golem Stones are, right?"

The elderly cult members, their faces pale, exchanged glances, and finally said, "These Golem Stones were collected by the Sect Leader back then to perform the Satanic ritual, which could bring peace and prosperity to our Satanic Church!"

"Is there anything else you're not telling? Say it now, this is your last chance."

Yang Tian said calmly.

"We've already told you everything we know, there's nothing else…"

The elderly cult members exchanged glances, shaking with fear.

"Is that so?" Yang Tian sneered coldly: "These Golem Stones are filled with human corpses. You collected so many bodies, making Golem Stones, all for a religious ritual?"

Hearing Yang Tian's words, Phil'Er was suddenly shocked: "Could it be that my boyfriend is also inside? Wait, are all those missing church members from back then in these golems?"
